En Hora Buena

The song "En Hora Buena" by Alex Zurdo is a narrative of personal transformation and spiritual awakening. The lyrics begin with the protagonist reflecting on past mistakes, acknowledging the consequences of trying to experience everything at once, which led to a downfall. The 'lodo' or mud mentioned symbolizes a low point or a state of being soiled by life's misadventures. The price paid for living life in a certain reckless way is recognized, and there's an admission of almost believing that life was ruined.

However, the song takes a turn as it describes an emptiness that was pervasive, likened to a cold, vast space. This emptiness is then filled with love, which brings about a significant change in the protagonist's life. The love mentioned here could be interpreted as divine or spiritual love, which transforms and liberates the individual from pain. The lyrics suggest a newfound peace and fulfillment that only this love can bring, arriving at the perfect time and making life truly worth living.

The song also touches on the theme of seeking pleasure and the realization that material and superficial experiences do not lead to genuine happiness. The protagonist tried to indulge in all the pleasures life had to offer, only to find that they do not equate to living a meaningful life. The distinction between merely existing and truly living is highlighted, with the latter being associated with following a path of love and spiritual fulfillment. Alex Zurdo's music often contains Christian themes, and this song likely reflects his own faith and the belief that following a spiritual path is what gives life its deepest meaning and satisfaction.
